    Orbital

    March 15, 2025

    Pay no attention to the negative comments on Goodreads. I have to wonder if those reviewers read the same book I did (or read it at all).

    The Coworker

    March 13, 2025

    This is my first foray into the writings of Freida McFadden. It's hard to describe but I really didn't care for her writing, but I also couldn't put the book down.

    The Possibility of Life: Science, Imagination, and Our Quest for Kinship in the Cosmos

    July 10, 2024

    I hope we're not alone in the universe. When I look up at the stars, I like to imagine that there is life orbiting quite a lot of them. Like in Star Trek. Which is referenced heavily throughout this book. And you know what? I'm here for it!

    January 10, 2024

    My first book of 2024! I picked this one up shortly after joining The Planetary Society and finding out they do a monthly book club. As the title suggests, it’s about the first six women selected by NASA for the Space Shuttle program. How does one not spoil a work…

My Rating Scale:
5 stars:
Superb! Couldn’t put it down! Will read again! Can’t recommend this one enough!
4 stars:
Great! Really enjoyed it. Maybe a few issues, but I definitely recommend and I may read it again someday.
3 stars:
Good. I enjoyed it, but maybe there were issues or something missing. Glad I read it but probably won’t choose to read again.
2 stars:
Not great. Not the worst book I’ve ever read, but I’d have a hard time recommending it and I highly doubt I’ll choose to read this again.
1 star:
Ugh. Did not like it at all.
DNF: Did not finish. I won’t rate it because that’s not really fair since I chose not to finish it.

Sometimes I’ll watch movies that are adaptations of books and review those with a sort of compare/contrast kind of thing.

I’m a CPA and work a lot. I’ll try to update this as quick as I can when I finish a book. Mainly because if I wait too long, I’ll probably forget what the book is even about…

And if this is your first time here, and if you’re really that bored, you can read my very first post here!
